Austin Schroeder at Barchart.com said, “Wheat futures are showing weaker trade so far on Thursday, with spring wheat trying to show some strength. The wheat market saw losses across the three exchanges at the Wednesday close. Chicago SRW futures were down 1 to 2 cents in the front months on the day. Kansas City HRW contracts led the charge, down 10 to 12 cents on Wednesday. MPLS spring wheat losses totaled to 2 to 4 cents in the nearbys. Strength in the U.S. dollar index put some pressure on things.” Amanda Brill at Total Farm Marketing said “U.S. 2025 all-wheat acres could reach 46.6 million (up from 46.0 million last year). March 1 stocks are expected to be around 1,225 million bushels (up from 1,089 million last year). There is also a chance of rain in Kansas.” The USDA announced a market relief payment for U.S. wheat farmer of $30.69 per acre.
